XP Mode in Windows 7 on T400, CPU virtualization not enabled (but it really is) error

I installed Windows 7 Pro 64bit on my T400 this week. I'm trying to get the XP mode VM to run because the VPN's for work aren't compatible with Windows 7 yet. When using the tool to verify compatibility of the T400 with Microsoft's new VM software it says that hardware virtualization is not enabled. According to microsofts help page that means the laptop is compatible but the CPU virtualization needs to be enabled in the bios. I followed their instructions to enable it but there was no change. I returned to the bios to verify & sure enough, it's on. I installed XP mode vm & vm software but it wouldn't run stating the above problem.
Has anyone else run into this or know how to fix/get around it?
Thank you,
Chad
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I found the answer in another forum. Apparently just restarting isn't enough to make the switch work properly. The computer needs to be shut down & left off for a few seconds then started for each change to CPU virtualization to be applied.
So, I disabled it again. Turned it off for a few seconds. Re-enabled, turned off for a few seconds. Then it worked after booting to windows.
Cheers,
Chad

Lately, I've been getting a blue screen in the midst of working and have to do a cold reboot to end it. Seems to happen when I'm closing windows or quitting applications. Not always, but sporadically. What causes this? I'm using 10.6.8 on early 2011 MBP.

You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

hbereth,,
It is Ideal to install Creative Cloud app , if you are using Adobe apps.
Creative Cloud is nothing but an updated version of Adobe Application manager. Adobe Application Manager is required for different purposes like Activation, Update.process and installation processes.etc
Adobe application manager must be up to date , that brings to Creative Cloud application which is the updated version .
No need to Sign in and all , just keep it install, if you are not okay with installing Creative Cloud app. it's okay , you can still have Adobe Application Manager only.

After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2), After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2)

After installing itunes 10 installation was successful but then tells me error 2 (windows error 2).

Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe, and select "Extract to iTunesSetup". WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup".
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

HT201263 After getting the recovery mode screen, I tried to restore my phone. But it was not working, it displays an error. Wat to do now?

My iPhone was a contract phone then. I used it in India by using gevey sim. After 6 months, I unlocked the phone by factory unlock. Then I upgraded my phone from 4.2.1 to 6.0.1, after that sometimes the carrier signal will not appear and a message "restore needed" appeared often. One day I realize that my flashlight was not working. After a week, again same message"restore needed" appeared. I just restarted my phone, it came to the recovery mode. I connected to iTunes to restore it, but it showed an error. What to do now?

Your problem is that you've hacked your phone to unlock it. Apple warns that if you do this things may not work properly or work at all. Unfortunately, there is no support for hacked iPhones here, per this forum's terms of use.
You'll have to go elsewhere for help.
Good luck.

Unable to attach USB device in XP Mode on Windows 7 enterprise x64

I am using XP Mode on win 7 enterprise edition x64, when i try to attach USB devices on XP Mode i receive the below message
''Could not attach the USB device. You can attach the USB device to the different USB port or restart the virtual machine and try again"
USB devices works fine on windows 7 but not in XP Mode.
Any suggestions please..

Hi,
From what I have known, not all USB devices will work under XP Mode hubs.
Also, Windows 7 XP Mode is not capable of detecting or recognizing USB 3.0 ports on the host system. It is only capable of detecting and recognizing USB 2.0 ports.
Does the USB device can be detected in the host machine? On the host machine, go to Device Manager, check if USB Virtualization is installed, try to uninstall and re-install it for test.
Meanwhile, please refer the following article and check the result:

Will Let's Edit run on Windows XP mode in Windows 7?

I just purchsed an iMac and I want to load Windows 7 Professional onto it as well. We own the full version of Edius 5 but have not tried learning that program yet. I don't know if Edius 5 will run on Windows 7 but if I can still use Let's Edit I'll be in business for now. I read some information on running Windows XP mode on Windows 7 and I see that a special processer is needed in order to run this. Do you have any idea if my new iMac will support the Windows XP mode? Any help you can provide me will be extremely benefecial to me.
Also, where and how can i acquire the legacy OCHI firewire driver for my video card? As i mentioned, this will be on a new model iMac so will I still need this driver to be installed seperately? Why is it that the default driver installed by Windows 7 will not allow me to capture or output video?
What I am trying to ultimately avoid at this point is having to load an outdated Windows XP OS onto my brand new iMac that utilizes 64 bit hardware and software. I will greatly appreciate any further help you can provide me.
Thanks,
Nick

Some basics.
VMs are virtual machines. They run inside or under or side by side (same thing, just what people call it) and your Mac will run Windows and this application just peachy - perfect for anything except games.
Running Windows as Windows is also called running Windows natively (directly on the hardware, versus running in one of those VMs), is also called a dual boot: boot Mac OS -- or you boot Windows.
VMware Fusion: Install Windows via Boot CAmp (native, on its own hardware), but / and, you can also then use Fusion (which is a VM) inside Mac OS when you want; or, you can boot and run Windows natively.
XP Mode requires hardware virtualization to be enabled in the system board bios (that is EFI or actually UEFI, that Macs use). On a PC you have to enable it in BIOS as it is off by default usually.
It 'should' be enabled. Separate from 64-bit hardware. And separate from your UEFI firmware which is also 64-bit. But the Mac Pro found itself with VT-d off after an Apple Security Update. Go figure.
XP Mode is really just hardware VM. And using Sun (now Oracle) VirtualBox VM (free) is easy.
A VM just does not benefit from 64-bit, unless you need to allocate say 4-6GB RAM in your VM, and your app definitely does not.
Pro version is what MS sells or offers to education institutions.
Is needed for more backup options, XP Mode, dual processor (Mac Pro).
Download and play with VirtualBox and Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
I have Pro and Ultimate on two systems.

How to run labview program in debugging mode in windows 95 version

Respected all,
I am facing probelm while running probe.vi.
I received this command "connection to acquisition board was not found" when i run labview program.
I am using labview 5.1, fieldpoint FP 1000, NI-DAQ 6.5, Field point explorer version 1.6, Measurement and Automation Explorer 1.0.1.
I would kindly request you please help me how to run my program probe.vi in debugging mode in windows 95 version, so that i can locate where error occurs.
Thanking You
Yours faithfully
M.Vijay

Respected Norbert,
Thank you very much to for your help.
Norbert : Possible reasons are e.g. wrong IDs for measurement devices. If the error is connect to the FieldPoint, it is possible that it isn't configured correctly.
I am using Field point explorer 1.6, The Field point instrument FP 1000 and RS-232 port is using. It is confirmed that the field point instrument is working properly by LED light indication test.
Norbert: It sound like you are using DAQ devices (like PCI MIO 6952E) in the application. Are you sure that you select the correct device ID for this?
I am asking you to know, If i using Labview and Fieldpoint instrument FP 1000 to monitor my parameter interms of All, Channel 0, Channel 1, Channel 2, Channel 3, Channel 4, Channel 5, Channel 6, Channel 7 for my measurement.
But now i need to solve the command connection to acquisition board was not found, The expert say this command is due to there was no AT-AO-10 Analog Output board was present in CPU.
I do not find AT-AO-10 Analog Output board in my CPU, Previously the instrument was worked perfectly by other person who assembled everthing to measure temperature.
The only aswer know send by previous person is if my task does not imply the use of a DAQ you probably have to locate where the DAQ driver is called and exclude it from the program. try to run the program in debugging mode so that you can locate where the error occurs.
I do not know how to proceed his instruction. So i would kindly request you to please help me to solve my probelm.
I also removed AT-AO-10 software from device manager >> Data Acquisition system >> AT-AO-10 just now.
I also find GPIB version 1.30, when i remove in add or remove program, it say that Error removing the GPIB.
I am eagerly waiting for your help.
Thanking You
Yours faithfully

Installing xp mode in windows 7

Hello, I have a new Touchsmart 610 with windows 7 - 64 bit and need to install xp mode to run some older programs.
I have followed the instructions on the Microsoft site to a point and have determined that "hardware-assisted virtualization" is not enabled on my system. When following their instructions to 'turn on hardware virtualization in my PC BIOS', some of the steps do not match up with my choices. Can you point me to some specific HP instructions for this?
Many Thanks.

There are patches available from Microsoft that remove the hardware virtualization requirement, you don't need anything from HP for it. You will find them in the XP Mode sections of the MS web site.
Keep in mind that XP Mode is for Win7 Professional and Ultimate, the Home and Home Premium versions do not support it.

USB help in XP Mode in Windows 7 boot camp

I have been running Windows 7 in Boot Camp for quite some time. I need to run a program in windows XP and have installed XP mode in Windows 7. The USB dongle I need to use for the program is not being recognized. From what I gather USB 3.0 is not supported by windows XP. I am wondering if there is a workaround to be able to utilize the USB dongle in XP mode on a MacBook Pro late 2013 with two USB 3.0 ports. I tried uninstalling the USB 3.0 extension hub driver from Intel and this totally negated use of the USB ports.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Installing Acrobet diabled the Integration Features of the Virtual XP-Mode in Windows 7 Professional

Installing Acrobet diabled the Integration Features of the Virtual XP-Mode in Windows 7 Professional, 64 Bit. Does anyone know of a work around so the integration features can remain enabled in the Virtual XP-Mode? I now have Acrobat installed in the Virtual XP Mode and the Integration Features are enabled and working as intended. However, it is cumbersome to work in the XP Mode and then transfer the work to the reular mode.

There are patches available from Microsoft that remove the hardware virtualization requirement, you don't need anything from HP for it. You will find them in the XP Mode sections of the MS web site.

Windows XP Mode - Could not enable integration features

Hello! Let me start off with saying that I'm not very computer savvy, so please be gentle! :)
So here my problem. I have scoured forums all morning looking for a solution and have tried many things and nothing has worked yet. I have Windows 7 Pro. I use the Windows VM to run in XP mode so my small business programs will
operate correctly. This morning VM would not open. I click to open Windows VM, it take unusually long to attempt to open. After 5 or so minutes error message - Could not enable integration features with details stating . It gives me
an option to retry or continue. When I hit retry, it does so but the ending result is the same error message. When I click continue it states the operation has failed - the VM is not running.
What I HAVE tried-
-Reboot
-Clicked start>windows virtual pc>open windows virtual pc>right click settings
- From this point I have tried to shut down from the close option as well as uncheck enable integration features at start up. Status is in Hibernation and has not changed.
Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Bob, I have read as much as I can find on this problem (Enabling Integration Features and having it remain enabled), and your responses are the most straight forward, complete and seem to have helped a number of others. So, I'm adding to this discussion,
instead of starting a new discussion, so that I can get YOUR response.
I am running Windows 7 Professional on a Dell Precision M6500 laptop with an Intel Core i7 processor and 8 Gb of memory. When I first setup the laptop I installed Windows Virtual PC and XP Mode, after downloading from the Microsoft.com
website. While the installation went without an error, getting to use it was a major, and long problem. I have one (very) old planner software app that I've been using since the mid 1980s. Being somewhat stubborn, I refused to change to a newer
app. So, I installed the app under XP Mode (it doesn't run under Windows 7) and it worked fine. I then tried to setup the printer and the Guest PCs drives (some USB). I followed the Microsoft instructions and suggestions I found in forums.
I finally gave up and called and paid for Microsoft tech support. Many weeks and we finally got it working - was able to print to my wireless printer from XP Mode and was able to backup my data to the Host PCs USB drives (I make three copies of the data
on a daily basis, so I actually have 21 copies of the data after a week). When we got it working I never had a problem with Enabling Integration Features, before it would disable Integration Features after I enabled them, repeatedly. Then a Windows
7 upgrade hung - 8 hours and the PC hadn't shut down. I powered off the PC and then powered back up. I got a blue screen error about CPU being too hot and the PC shut down. It was no hotter than usual. Powered up again and all seemed fine, until
I went to start XP Mode and my planner. XP Mode was trashed, wouldn't start. Tried to reinstall and still had the same problem. So, another call to Microsoft Tech support and another fee. Interestingly, the fellow that I worked with this
time as a level higher and knew the first tech I worked with. A few days and XP Mode was back running and the environment was actually as it had been when the PC crashed (the VHD file was still there and had my original environment - settings, programs,
printer and drive mappings - all in place, this file is in the same location as the VSV file).
Long winded background to my current, repeated problem. Integration Features will no longer stay enabled. While I don't recall a "crash" or "hung" PC, my notes are all in that planner app in XP Mode and I can't get to it. So,
I uninstalled VPC and XPM and reinstalled from scratch. Reinstalled my planner app, configured and tested my printer and host drives (didn't map them, just access them from My Computer). Suddenly (as I said, I can't recall anything going wrong to trigger
the repeat of this problem) Integration Features will not enable. I've deleted the VSV file and the problem still exists. Just "Shutdown" XP Mode and 50 Windows XP updates were installed. Then installed 48 updates. It worked for one afternoon and
evening. Booting the laptop this morning and Integration Features again is unstable. One more Windows update was installed. Then I followed your suggested steps:
Delete the" Windows XP Mode.vsv" file in the folder
C:\users\[your user name]\appdata\microsoft\Windows Virtual PC\Virtual Machines.
That should then allow XP Mode to start correctly.
Have you uninstalled, rebooted XP, and reinstalled the Integration Components? All of this occurs in XP Mode not on Win7.
1. Uninstall the Integration Components in XP Mode from Add/remove programs
2. Reboot XP Mode
3. Reinstall the Integration Components in XP Mode from WVPC menu.
The laptop is also in the same Workgroup as the Host PC and all the other PCs on my LAN.
Any suggestions?
Where can I find the following folders from XP Mode on the Host PC:
C:\Documents and Settings\All users\Documents
C:\Documents and Settings\XPMUser\My Documents
I created folders in both with the backed up data and programs from my planner app and would like to have access to them from the Host PC.
I'm just about at the point of abandoning XP Mode and looking for an alternative Virtual Machine app, just using Outlook, or getting the Outlook app from the original software provider of my planner app. All of these options are less
than ideal, but Microsoft's XP Mode has also become less than ideal.
TIA
